    Snow Day #1

    Posted in: Meg

    Looks like it snowed last night! There isn’t much out there; maybe an inch or so. The kids are home today due to the cold and wind chill. They don’t get to play outside at all though and are jealous of Meg getting to go out and play. It’s her first snow afterall, how could I tell her she couldn’t…not to mention that’s where she does her business.

    She didn’t know what to think of the snow at first, but it didn’t take her long to start hopping and biting at it. At least it isn’t my arms, feet, legs, chairs, beds, toys, stuffed animals, pillows, etc. like everything else. She can bite snow all she wants!

    From the looks of it, she has no problem with that!

    She had a great time out there! Now, to give her a bath (she’s getting stinky) and some movies with the kids. Great way to start the beginning of our weekend as the kids are out of school Friday and Monday.

    Have a great weekend if we don’t “talk” before then.

    I’ve never been a big party person. I like the occasional outing with drinks included, but as with most holidays I prefer things to be low key.

    Punkin on the other hand had a birthday party/slumber party she just had to attend and Bingo tried his hardest to stay awake to no avail. So that left Sunshine as the only person in the house under the age of 30 that was awake and ready to party!

    The three of us, and our pup, Meg played “Sorry!” while watching Coldplay on Austin City Limits. It was nice and relaxing…well except the very competitive game we were playing. ;)

    Have I mentioned that Sunshine lost her bottom two teeth the week of Christmas? Yep! They had been loose for a while, but a small bump from her brother’s noggin’ got things rolling. She said she felt it come out and proudly showed off her bloody mouth. She wasn’t scared at all, which surprised me because any little cut or scrape demands multiple kisses and doctoring.

    Within three minutes the other tooth was yanked out by Sunshine. She was ready to be rid of that one too! So the Tooth Fairy got to visit her for the first time and collect TWO teeth at once! Sunshine was pretty darn excited!

    How was YOUR holiday?

    Meg!

    Posted in: Meg

    Introducing the newest member of our family…Meg! Or Lady Megan if she is being naughty. ;)

    I do have to warn you that the cuteness is a bit overwhelming so feel free to take a break between photos.

    Sunshine enjoyed her motherly duty of pushing Meg around at Petco. We stopped there on our way home and I’m sure we will be heading back again soon for more toys.
